Good luck with that. They have no idea. Last time I checked they said that they would have to go back and do all the of the investigation manually. They have yet to build the system to make it a reality. Given their success on building an award search engine, I'd have to assume that it may be an idle threat.
In the mean time I have a spreadsheet that tracks monthly earnings and redemption so that I will know my own aging. The good news is that I currently run about a 1-2 year cycle time and the slow killing of IKK put a good reset on most of my points on February 28, 2009.
